Sides face grand square
This night I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
This prayer I still remember
'Though it's been so many years
Allemande and weave
If I should die before I wake
Swing your lady and promenade
These words would bring me comfort
And would drive away my fears

Heads promenade halfway 'round
Lead right, right & left thru
Veer left, couples circulate
Chain down the line turn that girl
Pass the ocean, boys circulate, girls trade
Swing the corner and promenade
These words would bring me comfort
And would drive away my fears

Sides face grand square
Childhood memories of happy days gone by
Of games that you and I would sometimes play
Allemande left and weave
And looking back I think about what might have been
Swing and promenade
But in my heart I know it's just a childhood dream
